Before I strongly encourage him to do this, I was curious as to whether anyone else felt there was a real market for such things.I was (somewhat) following a dicussion about high speed communications handled over the PCI bus, and there's a company that makes T1/T3-level serial cards for PC's, and from what they were saying, there's no way to reach even a full T3 worth of bandwidth on a PCI bus, so I think trying to push an OC-# connection over it might be pushing it a bit ;) Chris Chris Wilson (CW40) | http://www.atlantic.net Internet Connect Company | Dial-up access * Web hosting Sales: 800-422-2936 Support: 800-921-9328 | Leased lines * News services
